Let’s face it, managed WordPress services are expensive and restrictive.

But with new Plesk management tools for WordPress, the world’s most popular content management system just became even easier and more efficient to use. Through the built-in WordPress Toolkit, Plesk allows you to mass-manage themes and plug-ins while simplifying your back-end administrative requirements and includes server-to-site security, outbound mail settings, WordPress auto-detection, and selective WordPress hardening.

Your web server is protected by Fail2ban, a popular intrusion prevention system, which detects suspicious activity and automatically blocks malicious users.

Fine-tune the restrictions that suit your specific needs. No technical expertise is required.

All of your websites are protected by ModSecurity, a web application firewall, which detects and prevents common attacks. At the center of ModSecurity is a powerful set of security rules developed by the industry experts at Atomicorp.

As the most popular and largest library of rules in the industry, this firewall will safeguard all of your WordPress sites from attacks.

Automatically block hackers, spammers, botnets, and DDoS attacks with ServerShield™, developed exclusively for Plesk by CloudFlare.

ServerShield uses CloudFlare’s next-generation content delivery network to speed up websites by automatically caching static resources.

You’ll stop attacks and make your websites faster in the process.

Plesk 12.5 protects your server’s IP address from being blacklisted with adjustable, outbound anti-spam controls.

With complete mobile browser support, you can manage your websites from anywhere at any time – making it possible to respond to customer requests without being tethered to a specific location.

Isn’t it great when issues fix themselves? Automated healing and recovery functionality is built into Plesk so many technical issues can self-repair without needing skilled support.

Thanks to incremental site backups, you are able to save only what has been recently changed or is otherwise in need of backup – you no longer need to run a backup on the entire website as a result of a minor update.
